Honestly never thought I would say these words, but I love this Prada Nylon Bag. Years ago, I’m talking like when I started Bag Bliss the handbag blog, back 2004, I remember everyone was obsessed with Prada Nylon Handbags. Real or fake. It was crazy. This was a time when little was known, let alone done about counterfeit handbags that plagued the streets. People didn’t really understand the real cost of purchasing that knockoff designer handbag.

It felt like everywhere you went, if you just looked around within sight distance, there was always a black nylon dressed handbag adorned with that basic signature bottom-up triangle Prada logo. Most commonly, it was the Prada Nylon Pochette. So from this experience, I vowed to never purchase a nylon Prada handbag, ever..and why would you pay $500-$2000 for a nylon handbag that really doesn’t have any special detail that would warrant such a exorbitant price tag.

11 years later, I finally came across a Prada Nylon Handbag that I would own and it’s the Prada Tess Drawstring Bag! I absolutely love the design of this bag. It’s not like all the other nylon backpack styles that Prada is so famously known for. It has the option to be carried as cross-body or hand-held. I love the open compartment which is spacious enough for all the daily necessities, and the convenient easy access front pocket is perfect for organization of those at arms reach items. Also the nylon is designed to last.. I’m not kidding. You see vintage Prada nylon handbags on eBay all the time and they have stood the test of time. Durable, function and trendy. Also priced at $495, you’re not breaking the bank.

Our forever love for the Classics of Balenciaga, now available in Nylon. Yeah, you heard it right, not lambskin, not goatskin, but simply Nylon it is.

From the Classic City to the Cabas S Bag, it’s a new taste, new experience (you know that Balenciaga experience varies even in seasons, not only because they switched from leathers, but the thickness of the leathers varies too).

But Nylon is a surprising move, from experience with other designer bags, Nylon can be chic but doesn’t feel too luxurious. It got its own advantage like water-resistant and so on. Strong Nylon can be easy to maintain.

All the elements are preserved on the Classics, if you’ve bought a Classic City Bag before then you know that it can be addicted. Now that Nylon is out, perhaps it’s a great idea to own a piece in your wardrobe.

We belief Balenciaga Nylon is seasonal and this style will be gone when the next collection kicks in. The Nylon Collection actually consists of more bags, we already named the Classic City Bag, there is also the Mini Classic City, the Giant 12, the Cabas S Bag and the Cabas M Bag.
